Key Responsibilities 1. Equipment Operation & Monitoring • Assist in operating semiconductor fabrication equipment (Lithography, Etch, Deposition, CMP, Metrology, etc.). • Monitor tool performance, process stability, and equipment health. • Conduct daily checks, preventive inspections, and tool start-up/shutdown procedures. 2. Preventive & Corrective Maintenance • Support senior engineers in performing preventive maintenance (PM) activities. • Troubleshoot basic equipment alarms, mechanical/electrical issues, and process deviations. • Document maintenance activities, tool histories, and spare part usage. 3. Process & Quality Support • Ensure equipment runs meet process specifications with minimum variability. • Work with process engineering teams to support tool qualification and calibration. • Follow cleanroom protocols and quality standards (5S, ISO, safety norms). 4. Data Recording & Documentation • Record machine parameters, downtime details, and maintenance logs accurately. • Use Equipment Monitoring Systems (EMS), MES, and logging tools for reporting. • Maintain shift handover reports and escalation notes. 5. Safety & Compliance • Follow all cleanroom guidelines, EHS (Environmental Health & Safety) rules, and PPE requirements. • Participate in equipment and safety training programs. Requirements Skills Required Technical Skills • Basic understanding of electronics, electromechanics, sensors, and automation. • Knowledge of semiconductor manufacturing (added advantage). • Ability to read technical diagrams/engineering drawings. • Familiarity with PLCs, vacuum systems, pneumatics, or robotics (preferred). Soft Skills • Strong analytical and troubleshooting ability. • Willingness to work in a cleanroom environment and rotational shifts. • Good communication and teamwork skills. • High attention to detail and discipline. Work Environment • Cleanroom environment (Class 10/100/1000 depending on tool area) • Shift-based operations (24x7 Manufacturing Fab) • Use of full cleanroom PPE (bunny suit, gloves, safety gear) • Interaction with cross-functional engineering teams
